Opinionated Thought

Promises

Writings – Poetry

promises are nothing more than weak foundations

upon which we build our hopes and dreams

yet we just sit idly by watching them crumble and fall

 

dreams are nothing more than weak walls

upon which we rely for warmth and protection

we sit and watch them fall inward with each gust

of turmultuious wind that brings misfortune and pain

 

hopes are nothing more than leaky roofs

upon which we rely for completion of our souls

we sit and watch the raindrops fall pitterpattering on our beds

soaking them through with salty tears from weakened hearts

 

lies are nothing more than this foundation

upon which we built our hopes and dreams

yet we just sit idly by watching them crumble and fall

 

misinterpretaions are nothing more than crumbled walls

upon which we relied for warmth and protection

yet we sit and watch them fall inward upon us with each gust

of wind that brings misfortune and pain, rather then holding them up

and reinforcing them with love

 

pains are nothing more than shattered hopes and leaky roofs

upon which we relied for completion of us

yet we sit idly by watching raindrops fall pitterpattering on our bed

soaking it through with salty tears from my weakened heart.
